Good for machine shops and automotive manufacturers
Through our experience with Plex we have found it is built more to support the automotive industry or machine shops. Being an ETO shop, we have faced difficulties navigating the software especially as it releates to BOM management. We have extensive and complex BOM’s that require a more industry focused solution. In the right environement, Plex is a great system but we have not found it conducive for ETO producers.
Pros
Good for machines shops and automotive manufactures
Cons
Not well equipped to support ETO shops
